> Summary: Spin code out to non-ASF projects/contributors
> Key: LEGAL-504
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LEGAL-504
> Project: Legal Discuss
> Issue Type: Question
> Components: Policy Question
> Reporter: Cassandra Targett
>
>
> The Lucene PMC is discussing removing several features of Apache Solr and
> allowing various individual contributors to maintain them as non-official
> plugins. Others may come along after that point and fork the code to make
> variant plugins, or something else entirely.
>
> These contributors may not be current committers (and may never be), and
> some potential forks may choose to put their changes under a
> non-Apache-friendly license.
>
> Are there any legal issues we should be concerned about here? Would we be
> expected to give them a software grant (and if so, what would that look
> like)?
>
> We assume they would need to remove the license headers, are there other
> considerations?
